    Depends on what kind of ring you want? What kind of metal. What thickness etc.

    Ha, title made me think of a wedding band (music) exclusively for when two men are getting married!

    Definitely achievable, my mate had his ring thrown in free with his wifes and another got one for just over 20 quid. Definitely should be able to get something cheap and cheerful if that is what you want

    Spent 40 on my ring and I love it. Only have two. My wedding ring and my engagement ring. It's definitely doable go for something you like not what you think others will like

    You can get it for a lot less if you want, just find out what size you require.

    Couple of examples of what you can get if you don't want to spend a lot

    If you do DIY or physical work of any sort get a harder wearing metal. 200 quid is loads.

    Right, don't get high carat gold or silver. You'll have it ruined pretty quickly. 9 carat gold is harder wearing. Tungsten, titanium and palladium are all hard wearing, though it's very hard if not impossible practically to resize them if your finger gets fat or thinner later on due to the hardness. I have a palladium ring, it's worn fairly well though there are light scratches in it if you look closely. I would do a lot of DIY and work around the house/garden. Mate has a titanium ring, he is a sparks and said it wore quite well. I think titanium is very reasonable in price - 50 quid will get you a nice one.
